Tim Russert1950 - 2008
I want to take a moment to acknowledge a great political journalist, Irishman, and Catholic with a heart bigger than the heavens who died unexpectedly today. What more can be said about this great and humble man that hasn't been said already over the news networks and the Internet? Tim died a few hours ago in the midst of working at his office in Washington DC. Tim died doing what he loved - preparing for his Sunday talk show "Meet The Press."
To a great craftsman, family man, activist, philanthropist, and Irish Catholic - good job for a a life well done, Tim! He always fought on the side for the right and justice. Tim Russert is a man with overwhelming qualities that all of us can mimic and admire.
